Surfboard Storage

Where is the best place to store surfboards?

It’s best to store surfboards indoors, such as in your home or garage, to avoid extreme temperature fluctuations, humidity, and direct sun exposure. Use dedicated surfboard storage, like the padded Outerbanks Surfboard Rack, to keep your board safely off the ground.

Is it better to store surfboards vertically or horizontally?

Vertical storage minimizes pressure points and reduces the risk of warping. It also allows for more compact, space-saving board storage.

However, storing horizontally allows you to stack boards for greater storage capacity and provides more stability. Use racks with padding to protect your boards.

Can a surfboard be stored outside?

Yes, you can store your surfboard outside as long as you keep it in a cool, shaded area. Prolonged UV exposure damages surfboard materials like fiberglass and foam, causing them to deteriorate over time. It’s crucial to keep it shielded using a cover or surfboard bag if stored outdoors.

What is the best way to hang a surfboard?

The best hanging surfboard storage is on a wall-mounted board rack, installed into wall studs for optimal stability.

  • Horizontal storage: Accommodates all surfboard lengths, with or without fins.
  • Vertical storage: More compact, but may not fit indoors, depending on the length of your board.
How do you store a longboard surfboard?

Mount a horizontal indoor rack into wall studs for secure, space-efficient storage. Perfect above a couch or on a wide wall, it keeps your board accessible and turns your board into decor. You can also store longboards outside, as long as they are protected from sun exposure using a bag or cover.
